Explain?

I merely suggested that the problem is not inexperienced FOs. Nearly every airline has those, you were one yourself once.


The problem is Captains willing to fly when dangerously fatigued.

If you think you cannot be safe without a grown-up FO to monitor you, then you need to look long and hard at yourself and your acceptance of fatigue.

If you are tired, don't fly.
That might get you fired.
So what?

Tourist, I was referring to your comments on the cartoon, not the inexperienced F/Os. It wasn't personal, just saying it is the sort of comment I would expect from our illustrious management when faced with a problem like that.

I resigned as well, and am back in the States with a few weeks off before the new job here. Certainly miss the wonderful people I worked with, but not the rosters. Body is catching up, and haven't felt this rested in a long time. Best of luck to my Dubai buddies, hang in there.

Two more Emirates pilots will be joining the Delta ranks.
I told them it will be the best move they will ever make. Not only the money will be better but the lifestyle and of course how they feel both mentally and physically.
Get out as soon as you can!

End of May can't come soon enough! Looking forward to summer outside of the sand pit and the bloody 45c days!

For those describing earlier in this thread about "only" XX resignations year to date... the answer to this thread will be clear when perusing the seniority list come June.

Good luck to all!

Is there a unique list of all pilots or they're 2 (one for captains and one for F/O)?

I confirmed with my mate, he stated jul 2014 @ 3650 now @3400.syncpilot so only @ 100 between you and 2008 have gone.
